Next, the walking rehabilitation robot (10) according to the present invention performs a walking training in a state in which the position changing unit (32) is moved, thereby preventing the walking driving unit (2) from colliding with the position changing unit (32). Therefore, the walking rehabilitation robot (10) according to the invention can ensure a sufficient walking range and improve the walking training efficiency for the operator.
The position changing portion (32) may include a flat plate portion (321) and a connecting portion (322).
The flat plate portion (321) is provided on the guide portion (33). The flat plate portion (321) is used for supporting a trainer. The flat plate portion (321) is movable along the guide portion (33) to be located at any one of the movement position (P1) and the training position (P2). The connecting portion (322) may be provided on one side of the flat plate portion (321). Thus, when the flat plate portion (321) is located at the movement position (P1), the trainer can move toward the walking training space (200) through the inclined portion (31), the connecting portion (322), and the flat plate portion (321). The holding portion (201) may be formed on the flat plate portion (321).

The roller part (242) is provided on the position changing part (32) so as to be rotatable as the position changing part (32) moves. For example, the roller part (242) can be rotated in the moving direction of the flat plate part (321) and the connecting part (322) in accordance with the movement of the flat plate part (321) and the flat plate part (321). Thus, the walking rehabilitation robot (10) according to the present invention can move the position changing unit (32) by the rotation of the roller unit (242) while the position changing unit (32) is moving. Therefore, the walking rehabilitation robot (10) according to the present invention can reduce the force required to move the position changing part (32), and can move the position changing part (32) with only a small force. Thus, the walking rehabilitation robot (10) according to the present invention can further prevent the burden on the body of the operator during the movement of the position changing unit (32).
The guide portion (33) may include a second fixing portion (243) and a fixing member (244) that are locatable in at least one of the moving position (P1) and the training position (P2). In this case, the trainer transfer part (3) may include a first fixing part (203) provided on the position changing part (32).
The second fixing portion (243) is provided on the guide rail (241). The second fixing portion (243) is provided on the guide rail (241) to be able to be located at least one of the moving position (P1) and the fixing position (P2). The second fixing portion (243) may be formed in a hole or groove shape.
The first fixing portion (203) is provided on the position changing portion (32). The first fixing portion (203) is capable of being located at a position corresponding to the second fixing portion (243) at the moving position (P1) and the fixing position (P2), respectively, as the position changing portion (32) moves. The first fixing portion (203) can be formed in a hole shape in the position changing portion (32).
The fixing member (244) can fix the position changing portion (32). The fixing member (244) is insertable into the second fixing portion (243) and the first fixing portion (203) at the movement position (P1) with the movement of the position changing portion (32). In this case, the fixing member (244) can fix the position changing portion (32) at the movement position (P1). In addition, the fixing member (244) is insertable into the second fixing portion (243) and the first fixing portion (203) on the training position (P2). In this case, the fixing member (244) can fix the position changing portion (32) to the training position (P2).
Thus, the walking rehabilitation robot (10) according to the present invention can prevent the position of the position changing unit (32) from changing randomly in a state where the trainer is positioned on the position changing unit (32). Therefore, the walking rehabilitation robot (10) according to the present invention can prevent the trainee from falling down while the trainee is seated on the saddle (7) or moving toward the walking training space (200). Thus, the walking rehabilitation robot (10) according to the present invention can contribute to preventing a safety accident from occurring to a trainer during a walking training.
The trainer transport unit (3) may further include a stopper (202) provided on the guide unit (33).
The stopper (202) is capable of coming into contact with the position changing portion (32) to stop the movement of the position changing portion (32) as the position changing portion (32) is located at the movement position (P1).

Thus, the walking rehabilitation robot (10) according to the present invention can reduce the impact and noise generated by the guide section (33) during the movement of the position changing section (32) toward the movement position (P1).
Detection sensors (18) that can be brought into contact with the rear ends of the flat plate portions (321) of the position changing portions (32) are provided at the rear ends of the guide portions (33). The detection sensor (18) operates the walking drive unit (2) only when detecting contact with the rear end of the flat plate portion (321) of the position changing portion (32), thereby avoiding accidents that may occur when the walking drive unit (2) is operated in a state where the flat plate portion (321) of the position changing portion (32) is located in the walking training space (200). A detection sensor (18) or the like provided in a part of the guide unit (33) is provided as a trainer transfer unit detection device so that when the position changing unit (32) of the trainer transfer unit is located at a training position (P2) apart from the walking training space (200), it can be recognized that the walking rehabilitation robot is in a state allowing operation.
The walking drive unit (2) is configured to include: a pair of weight support links (223) and a pair of pedals (233), the pair of weight support links (223) and the pair of pedals (233) being disposed side by side at both rear sides of the weight support part (1) with a preset length to enable walking training of a trainee; and a single-axis driving part (21), a double-axis driving part (22) and a three-axis driving part (23), wherein the single-axis driving part (21), the double-axis driving part (22) and the three-axis driving part (23) are used for driving the body weight support connecting rod (223) and the pedal (233) to move along the walking track. As described above, with respect to the respective body weight support links (223) of the walking drive section (2), the right side surface of the end portion of one body weight support link and the left side surface of the end portion of the other body weight support link are respectively oppositely provided with pedals (233), and the structure and the specific driving for the respective walking drive section (2) are specifically described below.

The saddle (7) as a part of the seating part (12) is provided so as to be rotatable left and right while supporting the body weight in a state where the trainee is seated, and it is preferable that the saddle (7) is allowed to rotate within a left and right preset range as described above, thereby avoiding the occurrence of a load on the trainee due to excessive rotation. That is, the walking training can be performed more naturally by the movement of the pelvis portion than in the case where the saddle (7) is fixed. A chest support platform (140) for supporting the chest of the trainer is arranged at the upper part of the front side of the connecting frame (6), the chest support platform (140) is inserted and arranged in the chest support platform adjusting connecting rod (130), and armrests (150) are arranged at two sides of the connecting frame (6).

Therefore, the walking rehabilitation robot (10) according to the invention can be more helpful for preventing the safety accident of the trainer during the walking training.
Fig. 5 is a perspective view of a one-side walking drive part of the sitting walking rehabilitation robot according to the present invention, fig. 6 is a right side view of the one-side walking drive part of the sitting walking rehabilitation robot according to the present invention, and fig. 7 illustrates a left side view of the one-side walking drive part of the sitting walking rehabilitation robot according to the present invention.
As shown in fig. 5 to 7, the walking drive part (2) of the sitting walking rehabilitation robot according to the present invention includes a pair of body weight support links (223), a pair of pedals (233), a single axis drive part (21), a double axis drive part (22), and a triple axis drive part (23) as described above. In the drawing, only the right walking drive unit (2) of the walking rehabilitation robot (10) is shown, but the left walking drive unit (2a) also has the same configuration.
The body weight support link (223) is a part of a double-shaft drive unit (22) having a pedal (233) on the end side, the double-shaft drive unit (22) is provided on the upper surface of a single-shaft drive table (213), and the single-shaft drive table (213) is a part of a single-shaft drive unit (21) of the walking drive unit (2).
The single-shaft drive unit (21) of the walking drive unit (2) is configured to include: a single-shaft motor (211), wherein the single-shaft motor (211) is arranged on the walking driving part frame (24); a single-shaft speed reduction device (212), wherein the single-shaft speed reduction device (212) comprises a pulley, a speed reducer and the like which are arranged on the output end of the single-shaft motor (211); a single-shaft drive pulley (215), the single-shaft drive pulley (215) being provided on an output end of the single-shaft reduction gear (212); a single-shaft driven pulley (216), wherein the single-shaft driven pulley (216) and the single-shaft driving pulley (215) are arranged on the walking driving part frame (24) at a preset interval; a single-shaft drive table (213) which can be moved in the front-rear direction of the walking drive unit frame (24) and on which a body weight support link (223) including the pedals (233) is provided; and a single-shaft linear driving belt (214) which connects one end of the single-shaft driving table (213) and the single-shaft driving pulley (215) and the other end of the single-shaft driving table (213) and the single-shaft driven pulley (216) at the same time so as to drive the single-shaft driving table (213) to move in the front-back direction. Here, the single-shaft driving pulley (215) is coaxially arranged to rotate synchronously with an output end of the single-shaft reduction gear (212).
Thus, the drive of the single-shaft motor (211) of the single-shaft drive unit (21) is transmitted to the single-shaft drive table (213) through the single-shaft reduction gear (212), the single-shaft drive pulley (215), the single-shaft linear drive belt (214), and the like, and the body weight support link (223) linearly moves in the front-rear direction together with the pedal (233).
The double-shaft driving part (22) of the walking driving part (2) is formed into a structure comprising: a double-shaft motor (221) which is arranged on the single-shaft driving table (213) and realizes driving in linkage with the driving of the single-shaft driving table (213) in the front-back direction; a biaxial speed reduction device (222), the biaxial speed reduction device (222) being provided on an output end of the biaxial motor (221); and a body weight support link (223), one end of the body weight support link (223) is connected with the output end of the double-shaft speed reduction device (222), and the inside of the body weight support link (223) is provided with the three-shaft driving part (23) so that the pedal (233) can be positioned at the other end of the body weight support link (223). The rotational movement of the body weight support link (223) can be realized independently of the driving of the single-axis drive section (21) in the front-rear direction. A cable drag chain (324) is provided on the opposite side of a biaxial motor (221) to which the biaxial deceleration device (222) is connected, and various cables for supplying power to the walking drive unit (2) are placed in the cable drag chain (324) for protection and are driven together with the various cables.
Thus, the double-shaft motor (221) of the double-shaft drive unit (22) drives the front side of the weight support link (223) to perform rotary motion capable of ascending and descending together with the pedal (233) through the weight support link (223) by the double-shaft reduction gear (222).
The three-axis drive unit (23) of the walking drive unit (2) is configured to include: a three-axis motor (231), the three-axis motor (231) being disposed at an intermediate position inside the body weight support link (223); an orthogonal three-axis decelerator (232), the orthogonal three-axis decelerator (232) being connected to the three-axis motor (231), and an output end thereof being connected to a side surface of the pedal (233); and the pedal (233). The side surface of the pedal 233 is connected to the triaxial reducer 232 so that the pedal 233 can perform a relative rotational motion with respect to the body weight support link 223.
Thus, the drive of the three-axis motor (231) of the three-axis drive unit (23) is transmitted to the pedal (233) through the three-axis reducer (332), and the pedal (233) can perform the rotational motion as described above.
The walking drive unit (2) continuously performs the following walking track motion by the single-axis drive unit (21) and the double-axis drive unit (22) of the walking drive unit (2). That is, when one side step 233 of the walking drive unit 2 moves upward and slightly moves backward, the opposite side step 233 moves downward and slightly moves forward, and when one side step 233 moves downward and slightly moves forward, the opposite side step 233 moves upward and slightly moves backward, centering on one side end of the walking drive unit 2. At this time, the three-axis driving unit (23) causes the pedal (233) to naturally rotate in accordance with the operation of landing the heel first and then landing the toes sequentially during walking.
In the walking drive part (2), the motor, the speed reducer and the like are covered by the wire belt (40) because the driving of the motor, the speed reducer and the like can cause safety accidents and cause poor appearance. That is, the string belt (40) is connected by string belt rollers (41) respectively provided on the front and rear sides of the single-shaft driving table (213), and the string belt (40) continuously covers the front upper surface of the walking driving unit (2), the lower surface of the single-shaft driving table (213), and the rear upper surface of the walking driving unit (2).
Fig. 8 is a perspective view of a step of the walking rehabilitation robot according to the present invention, and fig. 9 illustrates an exploded perspective view of the step of the walking rehabilitation robot according to the present invention.
As shown in fig. 8 and 9, the footplate 233 of the walking rehabilitation robot according to the present invention has a square plate shape and includes an upper plate 54, a middle plate 55 and a lower plate 56, steel blocks 57 are protrusively provided on both sides of a lower surface of the upper plate 54 in a length direction, and a fixing band 51 for fixing a patient's foot is provided on an upper surface of the upper plate 54. An electromagnet (58) is provided in the recess (58a) at a position corresponding to the steel block (57) on the upper surface of the intermediate plate (55) to be attached to the steel block (57) by magnetic force, thereby bonding the upper plate (54) and the intermediate plate (55). The electromagnet (58) has a predetermined thickness, so that the electromagnet (58) protrudes downward through the intermediate plate (55). In addition, contact portions (60) are connected to the nuts (60a) and the urethane washers (66) at the four corner positions of the middle plate (55) for contact with the load cells (59) (see fig. 10).
Through holes (H) are formed in the upper surface of the lower plate (56) in parallel at positions corresponding to the electromagnets (58) respectively so that the electromagnets (58) and the concave portions (58a) can be inserted together, and load cells (59) are provided at four corner positions of the upper surface of the lower plate (56), the load cells (59) serving as a type of force sensor contacting the contact portions (60). The load cell (59) is provided to protrude slightly from the upper surface of the lower plate (56) so that the intermediate plate (55) and the lower plate (56) are coupled to be slightly spaced apart from each other when the intermediate plate (55) and the lower plate (56) are coupled to be overlapped with each other. A fastening part (513) is provided on a lower surface between the through holes (H) for connecting to an output end of a three-axis reducer (232) of a weight support link (223) of the walking rehabilitation robot (10).
According to the pedal 233 provided in the walking rehabilitation robot 10 configured as described above, when an emergency such as a stiff patient or an abnormal operation of the walking rehabilitation robot occurs, and a force of a predetermined level or more is applied to the pedal 233 to which the foot of the patient is fixed, the following operation is realized by the control of the control unit: the load cell (59) detects this by means of the contact section (60), and supplies current to an electromagnet (58) provided on the upper surface of the intermediate plate (55) so that the magnetic force of the electromagnet (58) is eliminated, thereby separating the upper plate (54) from the intermediate plate (55) attached to the upper plate (54) by means of the electromagnet (58). Thus, the electromagnet (58) is used, and when no current is applied to the electromagnet (58), the electromagnet (58) generates magnetic force to bond the upper plate (54) and the intermediate plate (55) to each other. In addition, a pedal assembly state sensor 51 (see fig. 11), such as a contact sensor, for detecting whether or not the upper plate 54 is attached may be provided on the pedal 233 so that an abnormal state in which the upper plate 54 is separated from the intermediate plate 55 can be recognized.
Fig. 10 is a side view of a pedal assembly to which the pedal of fig. 9 is assembled, and fig. 11 is a longitudinal sectional view illustrating the pedal of fig. 10.
As shown in fig. 10 and 11, the pedal assembly to which the pedal of fig. 9 is assembled is formed in a square plate shape and includes an upper plate (54), a middle plate (55), and a lower plate (56) which are sequentially joined in an overlapping manner. The middle plate (55) and the lower plate (56) have a preset interval, pedal detection parts (65) are respectively arranged on the periphery of the lower plate (56) in a protruding mode, and the lower portion of the pedal detection part (65) is fixed on the lower plate (56) through bolts (64), nuts (60a) and polyurethane gaskets (60b) under the state that the pedal detection parts (65) protrude. Wherein an elastic member (66) in the form of a washer and a nut (60a) are inserted between the upper portion of the protruding pedal detection portion (65) and the intermediate plate (55) and fixed. Specifically, when the lower surface of the intermediate plate (55) is brought into contact with the upper portion of the pedal detection unit (65) and the upper surface of the intermediate plate (55) is pressed by the bolt (64), the elastic member (66) in the form of a washer is inserted between the upper surface of the intermediate plate (55) as a pressing surface and the lower surface of the bolt (64) to fasten them. Further, as described above, the pedal assembly state detection sensor (51) is provided at the middle position inside the pedal (233), the load cells (59) are provided inside the four corners of the lower plate (56) connected to the pedal detection section (65), and the electromagnet (58) provided on the upper surface of the intermediate plate (55) is attached to the steel block (57) on the lower surface of the upper plate (54).
As described above, the upper plate (54) is arranged on the intermediate plate (55) in an overlapping manner in a state where the elastic members (66) are inserted into the upper portions of the respective pedal detection portions (65), and the elastic members (66) are respectively accommodated and fixed at four places of the lower surface of the upper plate (54), thereby constituting the pedal (223). Thus, the upper plate (54) and the middle plate (55) are connected to each other in an overlapping manner by interposing a plurality of elastic members (66) therebetween, respectively, wherein the elastic members (66) have a pedal detection portion (65) therein, so that the upper plate (54) and the lower plate (56) are not separated from each other.
The elastic members (66) can be made of natural rubber, synthetic rubber, or a resin material having elasticity, and typically, polyurethane is used as the resin material.
As described above, in the step plate (233) of the walking rehabilitation robot (10) according to the present invention, the elastic member (66) is inserted between the intermediate plate (55) and the load cell (59), and therefore, the force generated when the upper plate (54) is pressed is accurately transmitted to the load cell (59) through the intermediate plate (55). That is, when force is transmitted from the intermediate plate (55) to the load cell (59), not only force in the vertical direction can be transmitted but also torque can be transmitted to generate noise in a state where the intermediate plate (55) and the pedal detection portion (65) are firmly connected, but with the connection in which the elastic member (66) is inserted as in the present invention, since the rigidity of the elastic member (66) is negligibly small compared with the rigidity of the intermediate plate (55) and the pedal detection portion (65), the elastic member absorbs the generated torque and transmits only force to the pedal detection portion (65) during deformation. In addition, the elastic member (66) can prevent the intermediate plate (55) from being separated from the lower plate (56).
Thus, even in a state where the intermediate plate (55) and the lower plate (56) of the pedal (233) are fixed in a spaced-apart overlapping manner, the elastic member (66) does not cause any movement or deformation of the pedal detection section (65), and therefore, no torque generated by bending the intermediate plate (55) due to transmission of force acting on the upper plate (54) to the intermediate plate (55) is transmitted to the pedal detection section (65), and thus, the force pressing the pedal can be accurately detected and measured.
Although the above description has been made of the case where the pedal 233 to which the elastic member 66 is applied to the walking rehabilitation robot of the present invention, the pedal described above can be applied to a pedal of an exoskeleton robot, a walking analysis robot, or the like based on force, in addition to the walking rehabilitation robot.
Fig. 12 is a side view of a body weight support part of the walking rehabilitation robot according to the present invention, and fig. 13 is a perspective view illustrating an internal structure of the lifting part of fig. 12.
As shown in fig. 12 and 13, in order to support the saddle 7 of the sitting portion 12 on the vertical support 50 of the body weight support 1, the walking rehabilitation robot according to the present invention may be provided with a lifting frame 5 of a lifting portion 11 between the saddle 7 and the vertical support 50, and connect the lifting frame 5 through a connection frame 6, and the saddle 7 is provided at the lower end of the connection frame 6. Specifically, one side portion of the lifting frame (5) is supported by a vertical support base (50) of the body weight support (1), and the other side portion of the lifting frame (5) protrudes toward the outside of the body weight support (1) and is positioned on the side of the walking drive unit (2). In addition, a connecting frame (6) is connected to the other side portion of the lifting frame (5) located on the side of the walking drive unit (2), and a saddle (7) is provided on the connecting frame (6).
The weight detecting unit (8) may be provided in the lifting frame (5) connected to the connecting frame (6), and the weight detecting unit (8) may be a force sensor or a load cell. That is, a weight detecting unit (8) is provided at a part of an end of the lifting frame (5) on the side of the connecting frame (6), and the weight detecting unit (8) is covered with a cover, and one side of the weight detecting unit (8) is connected to the connecting frame (6), so that the weight and force of the rehabilitated patient transmitted from the saddle (7) or the like can be transmitted to the weight detecting unit (8) through the connecting frame (6).
The lifting frame (5) of the lifting part (11) can be arranged in a lifting manner so as to be capable of adjusting the height of the saddle (7) according to the physical characteristics of the rehabilitation patient. A screw (246) and a lifting block (245) are provided to realize the lifting of the lifting frame (5). The lead screw (246) is vertically disposed in parallel with the vertical support table (50) of the body weight support (1) and is rotatable in the vertical support table (50) of the body weight support (1), and the lifting block (245) is disposed around the lead screw (246) and is engaged with the lead screw (246). At this time, one side surface of the lifting block (245) is combined with the lifting frame (5). Thus, when the screw (246) is rotated in the normal direction or the reverse direction by a driving unit (not shown) such as a motor, the lifting block (245) can be lifted and lowered along the screw (246), thereby lifting and lowering the lifting frame (5). Thereby, the saddle (7) connected to the lifting frame (5) through the connecting frame (6) is lifted.
As described above, since the saddle (7) can be raised and lowered together with the connection frame (6) by the lifting frame (5), the weight detection unit (8) can detect the load (force) transmitted from the connection frame (6) via the saddle (7) and transmit the load to the integrated control unit (not shown) which compares the load applied to the saddle (7) with the weight of the rehabilitation patient, that is, compares whether or not the height of the saddle (7) is at a position corresponding to the characteristics of the rehabilitation patient, and then appropriately determines the height of the saddle (7) according to the characteristics of the rehabilitation patient. Thereafter, the lifting frame (5) is appropriately lifted and lowered in the above-described manner.
Linear Motion (LM) guides (250) for stably lifting and lowering a lifting frame (5) are provided on both sides in a vertical support base (50) of a body weight support unit (1) of a walking rehabilitation robot according to the present invention, and a torque transmitted by a load acting on a saddle (7) is cancelled by the LM guides (250), so that a force generated by the body weight of a rehabilitated patient or the like is transmitted to a lead screw (246) only in a vertically downward direction in the body weight detection unit (8).
A chest support base (140) for supporting and supporting the chest of a rehabilitation patient may be provided on the connection frame (6). Therefore, the chest is contacted and supported on one side surface of the chest support table (140) under the state that the rehabilitation patient is seated on the saddle (7), thereby more stably training the walking action. Since the chest support platform (140) is connected to the connection frame (6), the load (force) generated when the rehabilitation patient supports the chest by the chest support platform (140) can also be transmitted to the weight detection unit (8) through the connection frame (6).
A pair of armrests (150) can be vividly connected to the connecting frames (6) on both sides of the chest support platform (140) so as to support the armpit parts of the rehabilitation patient or hold the armpit parts by hands. When a rehabilitation patient sits on the saddle (7), the armrests (150) are supported by the armrests (150) under the armpits or the armrests (150) are held by hands, so that the walking movement can be trained more stably. Since the armrests (150) are connected to the connecting frame (6), the load (force) generated when the rehabilitation patient supports the armpit by the armrests (150) or holds the armpit by hand can also be transmitted to the weight detecting section (8) by the connecting frame (6).
As described above, the weight of the rehabilitation patient seated on the saddle (7) is completely transmitted to the weight detection unit (8) through the connection frame (6), but when the chest of the rehabilitation patient is supported by the chest support base (140), the armpit of the rehabilitation patient is supported by the armrests (150), or the armrests (150) are held, the dispersed load is transmitted to the weight detection unit (8) through the connection frame (6), and therefore the entire load of the rehabilitation patient seated on the saddle (7) can be accurately measured.
In addition, according to the walking rehabilitation robot of the present invention, the weight detection unit (8) and the saddle (7) are positioned inside the lifting frame (5) with a gap therebetween, and therefore, only the weight detection unit (8) provided inside the lifting frame (5) can be easily maintained or replaced by opening the cover (19).
The body weight support part (1) of the walking rehabilitation robot according to the present invention can be moved and used by being independently prepared. In this case, the body weight support part (1) may contact and be supported on the ground or the like.
The sitting walking rehabilitation robot according to the present invention can be adjusted to a walking training state in a state where a rehabilitation patient is seated on the saddle (7), and is therefore very convenient.
In addition, a member for pulling the rehabilitation patient upward is not required, and thus the space for installation in the upper direction is reduced.
In addition, after the load acting on the saddle (7) by the rehabilitation patient is accurately measured, the height of the saddle (7) is adjusted according to the characteristics of the rehabilitation patient, so that the targeted training corresponding to the characteristics of the rehabilitation patient can be carried out.
In addition, because the weight detection part (8) is arranged inside the lifting frame (5), the maintenance is simple and convenient, and the volume of the saddle (7) and the components around the saddle (7) is reduced.
In addition, the walking rehabilitation robot that changes the position of the detection unit as described above accurately detects and measures the load such as the weight of the rehabilitation patient, analyzes the measured data, and analyzes the force transmitted to the lower limbs of the rehabilitation patient, and is applied to rehabilitation training and also used for rehabilitation program control.
Fig. 14 and 15 are schematic sectional views for explaining adjustment of a distance between the chest support base and the connection frame in the body weight support part of the walking rehabilitation robot according to the present invention, and fig. 16 is a schematic sectional view for explaining rotation of the chest support base in the body weight support part of the walking rehabilitation robot according to the present invention.
Referring to fig. 14 and 15, the thorax supporting table adjustment link (130) is connected with the connection frame (6) such that one side of the thorax supporting table adjustment link (130) can move and rotate. Is connected with the chest support table (140) at the other side of the chest support table adjusting link (130). For the upper side of the chest support table (140) facing away from the lower side where the saddle (7) is located, it is connected with the chest support table adjustment link (130). The chest support platform adjusting link (130) penetrates the connecting frame (6), a nut or a bolt head is arranged on one side of the chest support platform adjusting link (130), and the chest support platform (140) is arranged on the other side. The chest support table adjusting link (130) may be formed as a bolt, but is not limited thereto, and may be formed in other forms as long as it can connect the connecting frame (6) and the chest support table (140) and can move and rotate with respect to the connecting frame (6). The chest support table adjusting link (130) is connected to the connecting frame (7) in a direction perpendicular to the direction of gravity so as to be able to be parallel to the saddle (7).
The chest support table (140) is movable and rotatable in unison with the movement and rotation of the chest support table adjustment link (130). For example, when the chest support table adjustment link (130) is moved from the attachment frame (6) toward the direction in which the saddle (7) is located, the chest support table (140) is moved away from the attachment frame (6). In this case, since the distance between the saddle (7) and the chest support base (140) is reduced, a walking trainer of a small size, such as a child or a woman, can be positioned to be suitable for the walking training. For example, when the chest support table adjustment link (130) moves from the connection frame (6) toward the direction opposite to the direction in which the saddle (7) is located, the chest support table (140) moves toward the direction approaching the connection frame (6). In this case, since the distance between the saddle (7) and the chest support base (140) is increased, it is possible to set a position suitable for walking training by a large walking trainer such as a male.
Referring to fig. 15 and 16, the chest support platform (140) supports the upper body of the walking trainer. For this purpose, the chest support platform (140) is connected to the "I" portion of the connecting frame (6) which is in the overall L shape. The chest support table (140) is connectable to the connecting frame (6) by the chest support table adjusting link (130). The chest support base (140) distributes the weight of the walking trainer supported by the saddle (7) by supporting the upper body of the walking trainer. For example, when a walking trainer inclines the upper body toward the direction in which the connection frame (6) is located in a state in which the walking trainer is seated on the saddle (7), the chest support table (140) supports the chest or abdomen of the walking trainer, and the weight supported by the saddle (7) can be dispersed. Thus, the body weight support part (1) of the walking rehabilitation robot according to the invention can avoid the situation that the walking training can not be executed for a long time because of the numbness or paralysis of the lower body of the walking training person when the body weight is only concentrated on the pelvis part of the walking training person. Thus, the body weight support part (1) of the walking rehabilitation robot according to the invention can increase the walking training time of the walking trainer, thereby shortening the recovery period of the walking-enabled state.
The chest support table (140) is adjustable in height. The chest support platform (140) rotates together with the chest support platform adjusting link (130) rotating in the first direction (R1, shown in fig. 16), so that the height of the upper body supporting the walker can be increased. For example, when the upper body support part (140) is located at a first position before rotating in the first direction, the height thereof becomes lower. In this case, since the distance between the saddle (7) and the chest support base (140) is reduced, it is possible to set a position suitable for a walking trainer, such as a child or a woman, whose height is low and whose upper half is low. For example, the height of the chest support table (140) may become higher when the chest support table is located at the second position after the rotation in the first direction. In this case, since the distance between the saddle (7) and the chest support base (140) is increased, it is possible to set a position suitable for a walking trainer, such as a male, having a high height and a high upper half height. Thus, the body weight support part (1) of the walking rehabilitation robot according to the present invention is formed such that the upper body support part (140) is adjusted in position to correspond to the body shape or height of the walking trainer, thereby enabling the walking training to be performed comfortably and freely during the walking training.
As described above, the sitting walking rehabilitation robot according to the present invention is described with reference to the illustrated drawings, but it is needless to say that the present invention is not limited to the embodiments and drawings disclosed in the present specification, and those skilled in the art can make various modifications within the scope of the technical idea of the present invention.
